Question to OLM/Other FWG members..... When the individual match day tickets go on sale, can you buy any seat in any section of the stadium (if free)? Will the match day tickets also be zoned pricing, or one high fixed price? Depending on the price it costs to join the membership scheme, if you only go to a few games it may be cheaper to be an outcast non-member? Will non-members be able to use our Ticket Office....errr....Ticket Shoppy Thingy...... Or will non-members be inconvenienced even more and have to pick them up from East Fife on a Wednesday between 1:30 and 1:32pm and only if you can sing the entire words to Tigers Tigers Burning Bright?
We didn't get much detail on match day tickets, the prices weren't fixed, but they are going to be zoned and considerably more expensive than membership prices. There's no membership fee for the entry point membership which just allows you to buy individual match day and bundles of match day tickets. The new system is supposed to be much easier, I don't know the precise details, but I believe you should be able to buy tickets on a phone, or at an automated machine, only paying cash and having someone manually load it onto your card would incur a charge (at least that's my understanding).
s It is an issue to me and my money is as good as yours. I see no difference in this one to the name change fiasco which was based on a back of a cig packet idea that it would bring untold riches into the club. If membership schemes, zoning, call it what you like are good for football surely other clubs would have brought them into operation by now as they would have been falling over themselves to change their names. Its not so long ago that everyone in Football fought tooth and nail against membership schemes /cards when Thatcher tried to force them on us. It's a poor scheme and one which will divide the fans even further. Some will buy into it but the majority will walk away from the club for good. I'm amazed that any supporters group have even entertained it.
I think it makes sense to divide the ground up into zones rather than stands but the rest of the ideas are rubbish. They have got to have reduced prices for under 21s and seniors
All supporters groups have only seen the final version of the scheme today, the same as everyone else. There's absolutely nothing wrong with a membership scheme, done properly it has advantages, the major problem with this one is simply the lack of concessions.
So what happens to the Supporters in W5,6,7and 8 Price on Application! The club seem to have no regard for the supporters that have been in those areas,since the KC opened. Any consideration to the founder members like my good self?
POA just means there will continue to be the corporate packages as normal. My old boy and I are looking at a reduction of 120 odd for me, with his concession that much on top. Barmy.
I've no idea why they've made W5 and W6 Price on Application, they were priced on the original release in the HDM, but were amended on the version the club put out. W7 and W8 are the corporate seats, they're not affected by the new scheme.
so you need to be 15 to get a ticket on your own ?....thank **** that didn't apply when i was younger or i wouldn't of being able to go....no wonder there's naff all atmosphere !
This was a surprise to me as well, but it seems almost all clubs have a similar limit, some set it all 12, but the vast majority have a 14 limit.
There is also nothing wrong with simply admitting they were wrong in increasing prices so much lasts season, being a bit humble and cutting prices for next season at the turnstiles for everyone. There is no need for any of this. We are not oversubscribed or anything. The ground isn't full.
All the old kops used to be filled with lads 12 to 20ish.....there the ones who create the atmosphere or at least used to....glad i started going to football when i did....this modern era as taken most of the fun away from games.
So west upper will be closed If so thats the bus from filey to home matches gone as most are west stand uppers.... ALL have said they are NOT gong next season if they have to move seat. No concessions for kids Is a ****ing ****s trick. Will away tickets go on sale to those who dont become members and **** home games off Anyone know Cheers
I can't see how they can not offer the tickets for general sale. If they have to buy a minimum number I would have thought the club has to sell them or pay the difference.
On a lighter note, when I was in Filey last year, I got a jumbo sausage and chips from the little chip place on the promenade. The ****ing sausage fell off the tray and started rolling horizontally down the slope. I chased after it and caught up with it before the ****ing seagulls could get it. I ate it, cruching through the sandy portions, the seagulls can **** off.
Away games only for me and the juniors Allam has done what lloyd failed to do Lock many fans out of the ground for good ( or until he ****s off or drops dead )
And that bus was always full. Even in the early 80s when the public of Hull had deserted City and were going to egg chasing, still full when we tumbled down to Division 4, full when crowds were down to 4,000. I know a couple of blokes who have gone on there for decades, ever since Boddy's buses ceased operating. I can see them getting there football fix at Queensgate in future.
